 * Added the <?php wp_footer(); ?> line just before the </body> tag and re-upgraded
   to version 1.5, and the stats now seem to be working again. I’m using WP 2.8.4.
 * This is the first time I’ve ever had to alter one of my theme files to get an
   updated plug-in to work and the less than helpful “tough luck” message from the
   developer earlier in this thread doesn’t inspire confidence. So, while it does
   now work, I shan’t be using it any more.

 * Hi,
 * I’m having the same problem at [http://wolfshowl.com](http://wolfshowl.com). 
   Stats are no longer showing properly for Top Posts or Most Active. Also, when
   looking at the stats for posts and pages, I can no longer get a list for most
   popular of all time.
 * Needless to say, nothing has changed on my blog and the stats seemed to be working
   fine this morning when I last looked.

 * Did you save the change to the style.css file? Cos I’m looking at your site and
   the line that justin suggested you change still says text-align: left.

 * Actually, just noticed that in your code for “Sale Patterns” on the shop page,
   there is no class defined for either the ul or the li. On the info page, there
   is a class defined for the li, but not for the ul. I believe that this will mean
   that the CSS is not being accessed as anticipated, and so not displaying as expected.
 * So that probably means you can ignore my previous message entirely!!

 * I’m not sure on this one, but shouldn’t list-style-image be list-style-type or
   are they interchangeable?
 * [Update] Just been testing this; and it’s a strange one. If I have both list-
   style: none and list-style-type: none, there’s no bullets. If I change list-style-
   type to list-style-image, there’s still no bullets. If I delete list-style, there
   are bullets but if change list-style-image back to list-style-type (but don’t
   restore list-style) there’s no bullets.
 * Try experimenting the same way with your CSS and see if you can achieve the same
   result.

 * Like I said, I’m no expert. Sorry it didn’t work out for you.
 * I have no idea how much it might cost you to have someone write a theme for you.
   Have you tried using a theme that’s close to what you want (and isn’t as broken
   as that one was) and editing it yourself? Provided you always keep a back-up 
   copy of the original files, you should be able to play about with the theme safe
   in the knowledge that if you do anything too wrong to it, you can always start
   from the beginning again.

   hard to read as I thought it would.

 * You need to edit your style.css file; the colours you want to change are defined
   in #leftnav, #rightnav and #content, using the background value.
 * The hex code for black is #000000 (can be abbreviated to #000).
 * Personally, I wouldn’t change the colour to black as I find white text on a black
   background very difficult to read on a screen. It tends to strain my eyes and
   I give up reading. But that’s me; others might feel differently.

 * Personally, I’d prefer to be in a position where the WordPress software was making(
   and changing, if required) all my links for me. The mix of automatic and hand-
   coded links is tempting something to break – if not now, then somewhere down 
   the line.
 * However, if you don’t envisage needing to change your link structure again (other
   than putting right those hand-coded ones) you might be OK staying with the mix
   you’ve got.
 * Sorry to be vague on the subject, but my experience in this area is limited; 
   all the sites I’ve ever had to administer have either had ALL hand-coded links
   or ALL automatic, not a mix.

 * Looks like you need to edit your sidebar.php file. The list of sponsored links
   is at the beginning of that file.

 * When you put anything into the default sidebar, it overwrites all the widgets
   that were there.
 * To get to your dashboard, you need to add /wp-admin to the end of your blog’s
   URL (so, [http://drugsruingoodpeople.org/wp-admin](http://drugsruingoodpeople.org/wp-admin)).
   You’ll either go straight to your dashboard, or you’ll get a log in screen (depending
   on your browser cache, cookies, etc). If you get the log in screen, just put 
   in the username and password you normally use.
 * Once you’re logged in, to restore the log in link, etc to your sidebar, drag 
   in the “Meta” widget. Or take all the widgets out of the sidebar to go back to
   the default.

 * I think it’s because of your permalink structure. Looking at your post pages,
   you’re using “pretty” permalinks, but your page links are using the page_id structure,
   which is the default “ugly” permalinks.
 * I’ve just tested this on my local install, and when I change from “ugly” to “
   pretty”, my page names changed from having a page_id link to having a link that
   included the page name.
 * The fly in the ointment to my theory is that when I changed the permalinks, they
   were automatically updated throughout the site, so worked correctly without needing
   any work on my part.
 * Are yours hand-coded or created by the WordPress software? It looks like the 
   page links were created before the permalink structure was changed, and they 
   have not been updated.

 * After much playing about I have managed to get this theme to display correctly(
   although, as I’m no CSS expert I may have broken lots of other things at the 
   same time!)
 * I had to alter the style.css, header.php and footer.php files. If you’d like 
   me to send you the updated files, please contact me via my blog (see my profiles
   for details).
